“We found what might be the best Italian restaurant in Orlando. The lobster bisque to start, then the lobster ravioli — both were flawless.”
Katherine & Paul, Napa Valley · OpenTable

Keep reading to learn more about Vincenzo
The restaurant options near most convention hotels fall into two categories: chains and hotel restaurants. Vincenzo Cucina Italiana is neither. It is a family-owned Italian restaurant at ICON Park on International Drive, 1.7 miles from Rosen Centre Hotel.
Everything is made from scratch. The pasta — lobster ravioli, gnocchi, pappardelle, fettuccine — is handmade daily. The steaks are USDA Prime Black Angus from Creekstone Farms. The seafood includes Chilean sea bass, Florida grouper, and linguine frutti di mare with shrimp, scallops, grouper, and clams.
This is not tourist Italian. This is a restaurant with 4,000+ reviews, a Golden Fork Award, and OpenTable Diners' Choice recognition — built on quality that speaks for itself.
The wine list covers Italian and California selections. Cocktails are crafted, not poured from a gun. Desserts — tiramisu, limoncello cake, Nutella cheesecake — are made in-house daily.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
The Navarra Group has been in the restaurant business for over 33 years. Vincenzo opened on International Drive in 2014 and has been serving locals, hotel guests, convention attendees, and families every night since.
That experience shows in the service. Servers know the menu. The pace respects your evening. The atmosphere is warm without being stuffy, polished without being pretentious.
No dress code. Shorts are welcome. Business attire is welcome. Kids 10 and under have their own menu for $13 with a beverage. Everyone fits at Vincenzo.
This is what a family restaurant is supposed to feel like — genuine food, genuine hospitality, and a place where people come back because they want to, not because it is convenient.
The server knew every wine on the list and recommended a Chianti Classico that paired perfectly with our ossobuco. This is hospitality done right.

Black Angus from Creekstone Farms
Hand-cut, cooked to order, served with truffle butter and fresh sides every evening.

Monday all-night happy hour changed our Orlando trips. $10 Espresso Martini, the carpaccio, and the penne vodka salmon.

This place is a hidden gem on I-Drive. Not a chain, not overpriced tourist food. Real Italian with real heart. The tiramisu alone is worth the trip.
David, Atlanta • TripAdvisor
Made the Way It Should Be
Homemade lasagna. Meatballs with San Marzano sauce. The Italian food you remember, done right.
Because the lobster ravioli is real lobster. Because the filet mignon is Creekstone Farms Prime. Because the tiramisu is made fresh daily. Because the valet is free. Because the dress code does not exist.
Because after a long day at the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC), Rosen Plaza, and Pointe Orlando, the last thing you need is another forgettable meal. Vincenzo is the opposite of forgettable.
Reserve on OpenTable or call (407) 745-4030. Open tonight, 5 to 10 PM.
